Using Community Psychiatry Methods in Private Practice
Abstract
Two cases that incorporate community resources into psychiatric-medical treatment plans for private patients illustrate the use of community psychiatry concepts in a private office. In both cases the private practitioner formed treatment teams with representatives of other community agencies to help the patients return and adapt to the community. Two problems that arise in the author's continuing work with community resources are the time it takes to implement clinical decisions through an agency and the agency staff's feeling of territoriality.
